Note di degustazione
An epiphany here with its wild, tangy nose full of white pepper, mezcal, blood oranges, forest floor and dried herbs. Really broad and precise, with a chunk of fine, mealy tannins that knit seamlessly on the palate. Nice bitterness at the end to seal it up before an extremely long, nervy finish. Pure garnacha peluda from Les Manyes vineyard. It goes on and on. 3506 bottles. Irresistibly attractive now, but can hold.

The impressive 2021 Les Manyes was very young and a little closed, even reductive and took time in the glass to take off. It slowly developed an acute note of violets and wild plants. It has a little more color than the 2019, but the maceration was more or less the same, so it must be from the year. It's very attractive, juicy and easy to drink, with notes that made me think of Château Rayas. It's fresher than the 2019 I tasted next to it. It's elegant and fruit-driven, right now very young, and it still doesn't have the complexity that it should gain over time. 2,688 bottles produced. It was bottled in June 2022.
The 2021 Les Manyes is 100% Garnatxa Peluda from Montaña del Montsant in Priorat. Sourced from clay and calcareous soils, this wine is an exception in the area. Fermented and aged in concrete vats, it’s a light garnet red with subtle strawberry aromas and hints of rose petal. Light and lean on the palate, it features a gently warm, chalky mouthfeel supported by taut, vibrant acidity and fine tannins, leading to a cleansing, lasting finish. This is a modern interpretation of Priorat.
